WIPER BLADES
Care point: Clean the windscreen
regularly with an approved glass
cleaner and ensure the screen is
thoroughly cleaned before fitting
replacement wiper blades.
Grease, silicon and petrol based products impair the blade’s
wiping capability. Wash the wiper blades in warm soapy
water and periodically check their condition.
If signs of hardness or cracking in the rubber are found, or if
the wipers leave streaks or unwiped areas on the screen, then
the wiper blades should be replaced.
Replacing the wiper blade
Operating tip: Only replace one
wiper blade at a time - always
leave one wiper assembly intact
to act as a guide while replacing
the other.
Lift the wiper arm away from the windscreen and set the
blade at 90° to the arm as shown. Disconnect the blade by
pushing in the locking tab (arrowed in inset), setting the blade
at 45° to the arm and sliding the blade down the arm.
Fitting a replacement blade is a reversal of this process;
position the new blade assembly on the wiper arm and slide
the blade fully towards the hooked end of the arm until it
locks in place. Check that the blade is securely locked before
returning the wiper assembly to the windscreen.
NOTE: The wiper blade on the
driver’s side is equipped with an
anti-lift airfoil.
Only fit replacement wiper blades that are identical to the
original specification.
